Tech Tools and Skills for Emergency Management

Togeth­er with my col­league, Una Moore, I am tak­ing an online course on Tech Tools and Skills for Emer­gency Man­age­ment at TechChange Insti­tute for Social Change: http://techchange.org/. It’s a 3‑week course and today is the last day of week 1. It’s my first online course ever and Una is help­ing me a lot with how it works and the course mate­ri­als too. Yes­ter­day evening, we took turns and read aloud the first week course mate­ri­als at a French restau­rant in Kab­ul, Le Bistro. We are at Le Bistro again today doing our home work for the class. I am so glad that she is in Afghanistan while we are both tak­ing this course together.
My 45 class­mates come from a lot of dif­fer­ent coun­tries. This mix would be very good for shar­ing ideas and expe­ri­ences through­out the course.
